Gold strong again
Gold has returned to the $1295 resistance level that has been tested twice since April. A daily close above here would trigger a test of $1307, and then on to $1345 and $1360.
It would need a drop below $1267 to suggest that more short-term weakness is on the way, which could open the way to $1252 and the 50-day SMA.
